Sheffield
SHEFFIELD is Tasmania's largest outdoor art gallery and known as 'the town of murals'. With sensational views of picturesque Mount Roland, Sheffield is an ideal town in which to take a self guided tour of the murals. The beauty of the surrounding area can be explored on horseback, with both beginners and advanced riders catered for, or via a wine tasting tour of some delightful local vineyards.
